Walking Sideways Seeing Red

Tortoise-like getting myself upright again...


A precarious balance this
walking a fine line business,
one foot in front of other 'tis
at times equilibrium bootless...

Breakneck a step lands amiss
suddenly sideways you lose footing artless,
then artfully rocking hard like a tortoise
you upright self to restore compass...

Though landing on feet is braveness,
the spirit is transposed nonetheless...
perspective and color forever redressed.
